Today I was doing LFR Raszageth on the BE Paladin I created during TBC.
I joined as a Healer. However I noticed that the 2 Tanks were inexperienced.
They were both Paladins.
One of them, wearing a goblin disguise, was complaining that his iLV was too low.
After inspecting him, I concluded even though he lacked any kind of enchants on his gear, he still had better gear than I did in any of my characters.
However I noticed his HP, during Raszageth fight, was constantly bouncing. I literally had to keep my eyes on him, all the time.
I told him, I tanked that boss on my warrior and paladin and they were just fine, with inferior iLV than he had.
After noticing both tanks died to Raszageth come breath, I asked if he wanted me to Tank, after another Zandalari Troll Paladin that was healing as well offered to tank.
So my plan was: replace both tanks and they would continue as DPS.
Which the Goblin player immediately took as an insult and tells me to shut up and stop being rude.
I told him it wasnāt, I was just asking.
Eventually the 2nd Tauren Paladin tank, that claimed to have raid tank experience in classic quits.
I replaced him, and the Goblin player I was talking to say: āHe thinks heās pro.ā (That was referring to me)
I really donāt understand where that player was coming from.
I wasnāt trash talking him, I offered to help.
It was ok if he went as a DPS instead.
Either way the Zandalari Troll Paladin player that offered to help was playing as a healer and was explaining tactics, replaces the Goblin player, after he quits, from another wipe.
Our first attempt failed as we didnāt had enough healers. Both of us, were supposed to be healing.
After that a Druid tank joined, I discussed with the Zandalari Troll Paladin, who would continue tanking and who would change role to healer. He was more comfortable with tanking, I hated tanking, so I went back to healing and we finished the boss.
Itās ok to be new on the game, if someone offered to take my place as a Tank, I would gladly accept it.
I really donāt understand why that player got so pissed off.
Cheers.
